The Unwelsh

May 6th, 2018

Honestly, if you’re offended at Michelle Wolf’s remarks and not “waves hands wildly and points everywhere* then what’s the matter with you? You elect a president who is the most crass, horrible person running on actual bullying namecalling and you’re offended at a comedian at a roast? Someone has to take the bullet when the actual president doesn’t have the guts to face mocking.
Have you seen the shit Huckabee’s dad tweets? And he’s a governor, not a comedian. Cry me a river. It was okay making fun of Spicer because he was a dude? Was it ok mocking a disabled reporter? Don’t worry so much about appearances when you’re ugly on the inside.

Good goat times today. Fairly grey and slightly cold morning. The sparkling spring has gone away, but at least it’s not freezing. Got the goats out grazing and browsing. Spent some time at the treeline next to the pen. Everyone enjoyed that. Including the kindergarteners beyond the fence who got to watch. One of the boys was a little frustrated that the goats didn’t want to eat the stick he was trying to give them. They were too focused on all the greenery on the branches all around them. And then we went back to the pen for some relaxing. As the weather got colder and the clouds got darker. I almost made it home before the rain and thunder started. Almost. (Said to the tune of Aliens they mostly come at night).

Just a quick thank you note to everyone who offered support and encouragement about the whole meds and moods thing. Thank you all. I feel like I’m getting worse and worse at Facebookfriendshipping, because of lack of time and energy and surplus of backlogs from the downtime and general frustration and also the fact that you humans puzzle me, as will be detailed in my next report to my Vogon overlords. I am afraid I shall have to request reinforcements if I am to make any headway into this whole “figuring out the humans” mission. Anyway, I appreciate those of you who make the effort and stick with me and all that. I hope the goat posts make up for the lack of human behaviour a little, and if you don’t like goats then… well, I’m sorry. Tomorrow is May, and you know what that means. It means you have to stop saying “I can’t believe it’s still April” as noted in section C, paragraph 8 of my last report. ALL HAIL VOGON. May the vogsphere bless us with the swift defeat of those who would oppose us. I may not understand this love thing you came up with to excuse the most silly of your behaviour, but I love you and I mean that from the bottom of the artificial heart that they installed in the used Vogon car that was modelled to resemble a human being. END TRANSMISSION.

Is anyone else getting checkboxes asking if there’s hate speech in my or Mia’s posts? I mean, I don’t really care if people think my political posts are over the line, you can unfriend me if you don’t like what I’m saying. I try to keep that stuff to a minimum, but sometimes I need to let off the steam. But I’m upset if Mia’s page gets dragged into that, there’s no hate on there. Only love and sunshine, mother#¤&Ws. Weird.
Just be aware, apparently if you’re flagging my posts you are also hurting Mia’s page. GUILT TRIP GUILT TRIP GUILT TRIP.

A thousandful thank yous to Keiko Murakami! What a wonderful present. A beautiful book of her art. This video is just a quick flipthrough, it doesn’t come close to doing it all justice. Go to Meowkami and look at all the stuff there. Thank you, Keiko. Dropped some tears and even more smiles looking through it. There are some of them that still touch my heart in that heartbreaking yet happy way. Like a dagger made of love. Or something. I shall treasure it always. So many memories. Thank you for capturing them perfectly. You’re amazing, Keiko!

It’s May 4th. I use hotmail every day. On May 4th they tell me that if I keep using their service after May 1st I’m agreeing to their new TOS. If that doesn’t sum up the world then I don’t know. It’s a good thing I’m too tired to get agitated. Mind you, I haven’t checked the twitter yet.

Also, happy Star Wars day to everyone who likes Star Wars and therefore is on the right side of history.
Although I do question how much Star Wars needs a day now that there’s a new movie every 3 months. I’m a little burnt out on the fandom, but Star Wars will always be one of those big, fictional worlds that I could escape into when the real world was too real. And even if it all gets watered down with every new blockbuster and CGI kids show, I will still have those old Han and Lando book trilogies and the old pencil case with scenes from the rebel hangar and all that. The comic book on my first solo train ride. Dad translating Luke Skywalker’s name as we read through the Galaxy Guide book I had imported. Star Wars is an essential part of my history.

I didn’t listen to Donnie’s talk to the NRA, but I caught some snippets on the news. I just want to say, yes it’s possible that if France had less strict gun laws that terrorist attack might have been stopped. It’s also possible if France had less strict gun laws that their kids would be constantly slaughtered in the school yards, who knows? The idea that one of those fat old nra whites with a gun would have stopped the attack? Yeah, you’re all superheroes with your guns. You’re Lucky Lucky, you’re Clint Eastwood, you’re John Wayne. You’d single-handedly shoot down a mob of muslim terrorists. If only we had more of your kind we wouldn’t need border walls. Sheesh. The idea that an attack would be stopped just by the chance of someone inside having a gun is so stupid. I have heard the same thing about school shootings. They wouldn’t go shooting up a school if they knew someone was inside with a gun? Most of these attacks are designed to end up with the perpetrator dead. The terrorists count on it, it’s part of the narrative. Suicide attack, you know? And kids who shoot up schools, I’m pretty sure many of them are counting on not surviving either. The Columbine kids offing themselves when they’d done what they set out to do. Knowing there’s a teacher with a gun inside isn’t going to stop a fucked up kid or an insane terrorist. And then there are the good guys with guns killed by police, the good guys without guns stopping attacks.
I get that you don’t want your guns taken away, but the NRA is cancer. I guess you have to be a member if you’re pro-gun, just like you have to vote for Trump if you’re against abortion. I just really hope you realise that NRA is damaging the world and Trump is everything that’s wrong with fat old white rich people. I’m not rich or that old, but I am fat and white so I can say that. And I’m not saying that white, old, fat, rich men are the only ones doing wrong on the world, but you can’t close your eyes to how much shit they’re causing.
Also, sad to hear about Junot Diaz. Very. I have some thoughts on that shirtshow too, but I think this is enough bile for now. Please remember if you flag this as hate speech you are hurting Mia’s page GUILT TRIP GUILT TRIP GUILT TRIP

Finally caught up with The Walking Dead. It’s been a trying season. I feel like the show has a bunch of brilliant characters, but aren’t using them very well. Too many communities and people I can’t tell apart and timelines overlapping and grim stuff happening. I don’t mind the grim things, but it just all blends into one for me a lot of the time. My wish for the next season would be to zoom in on the core cast and bring a little more fun and adventure and mystery to it. The whole war against other humans, not digging it so much. I want more Jesus, and the King (and his second in command guy person), and Carol, and Daryl, Morgan if he’s not complete nuts I don’t even know. Jadis. There was one of the saviours who got caught and turned and seemed interesting. I forget his name, but his face stood out which is something I really appreciate with my face blindness. I miss being able to watch tv and recognising faces. And my memory too. I don’t know if it’s just bad memory or if the blindness pays into it too, but there are storylines they bring up and I go “I have no recollection of any of this, who even are these people?”. Ah well. Nothing will ever be as good as the Lost days. That was my prime TV experience. But I still hope TWD steps up and lives up to its potential.

Good goat times today. Not quite summer temperatures, but nice and sunny. Took the goats out grazing. There’s more and more grass, despite the goats’ best efforts. A big group of kids came visiting. Lots of attention was paid to the goaties. With classic remarks like “she’s definitely pregnant” and “Ew, it pooped!”.Good fun. After the big group had left, there was another woman with a couple of kids who came by and put down a blanket and had a little picnic. A PIZZA PICNIC. The music of my tribe. Also, Milo realised that pizza is the greatest thing in the world. So he kept harrassing the poor woman. Haha. I went and picked him up and carried him away. She thanked me, but as soon as I put him down he made a beeline for the picnic basket, I mean pizza box. So I went and got him again and sat down a ways away and gave him some peanuts for crunching. But again, as soon as I set him free he went looking for pizza. He’s the Lasse of goats, I think. Peanuts and pizza, and he also got some pasta. I dropped a pasta wheel while I was getting a few out for the big girls. And he snapped it up. Lots of crunching. I guess he’s ready for bigboy food. He just better not touch ma pizzah.

I went by the old playground again. I wanted to see if I could get the playhouse with me. Turns out I was able to get it off the ground. But also that it was too heavy for me to take with me, even with the rolling shopping thing I had with me. Oh well. We’ll see if I ever manage to ask someone to help with it. I also wanted to take a look at the Lassepladsen sign as you guys mentioned last time. I ended up deciding to leave it there. I think I would have made a mess of it, and also… that place is the Lasseplads. That’s where I sat for 10+ years, through good and bad with wonderful goats. I don’t want to take that away. I want it to stay there, not to honour myself but to honour the goats that were there with me. From the original Mads and Mathilde, to the dear souls that were lost like Kamel and Palle and to the wonderful little ones that moved on and are hopefully having great lives elsewhere now like Peanut, Popcorn, Fuzzy and the Ping Pong twins and many more. Without all them I never would have spent all those years there. And even if the place is falling apart in neglect, I still want that little corner to be mine.
It’ll just be another 8ish years until I have earned a Lassecorner at the new place!

I think it’s about time to read all 6 books in the hitchhiker trilogy again.
In fact, I’m not even sure I’ve ever read the 6th one.
It’s still a fond memory, how our school librarian introduced me to the series in the effort to get me to read something other than ghost stories. I wasn’t keen on it at first because I thought it was an actual guide book. I can still picture that little school library. I wonder if they even have it anymore. It’s probably been replaced by a 10 CD-ROM set and a latte machine kids today sheesh get off my lawn. Smoke me a salmon of doubt I’ll be back for the long dark tea-time of the soul.

Good goat times today. A rainy morning. Cold and rainy walk to the playground. But luckily the rain stopped when I got there and the sun came out. Good for grazing. I wouldn’t have been able to get them all out if it had been raining. A guy came by while we were out. I’m not sure if he knew me, but he knew Mia and Mio from the old place. He said he’d been out for a walk and he’d never been out so far before so he didn’t know they had moved here. That was fun. We had a bit of a talk about the goats. He also asked me if I’d ever eaten goat meat. Nope nope nope. I told him I was a vegetarian and he seemed surprised by it. Not surprised that I in particular was a vegetarian, but by the whole concept in general. “That’s something you can do?!”. I don’t know if he’d never heard of vegetarianism before, but it almost seemed like it. Then I got down on the ground and started eating grass with the goats. Just kidding. Sounded like I might see him again, I think he’ll want to visit the goats more.
Shortly after we returned to the goat pen it started raining again. And then hailing. Quite a racket on the tin roof of the goat house. I’d been waiting for a good chance sit in there and watch the rain with the goats. It did not disappoint. Very cozy and relaxing. I have noticed that Milo and especially Sky seem to roll around a little when they sit down. Haha. I love when goats start rolling over on their side, like fainting goats only not fainting. It looks like me trying to get out of bed.

Also, according to Trump Cohen only did a tiny bit of legal stuff for him. You know what that means. FBI will have to find the lawyers that did the rest of his legal stuff and raid them too! I liked how Trump was offended that they raided the office. Yeah, they should have made an appointment and knocked politely. You’d afford the same privilege to Mexican gangbangers, I’m sure. Attorney/Crook privilege is dead, I tells ya.

Can’t wait to tune into the next state of the union address, which I’m sure will be held in the Fox & Friends green room.
That’s the politics for today. In lighter news, last night I dreamt that I was fighting nazis. But there were a lot of good people on both sides. Also, I died. The nazis killed me. It was pretty disturbing but also interesting because my conscience kept going. So I kinda got to experience dying. Maybe I was a zombie. I don’t know. Okay, you’re all dismissed.

I forgot to mention one thing that came up when I talked to that guy who came by and remembered the goats. You know, the guy who didn’t realise vegetarianism was a real thing. Haha. Well, he actually has (or had) goats of his own. And he bought a goat that didn’t have an ear tag. And his neighbours complained. And two weeks later the police showed up asking to see the goat. (He had given the goat back by then). So, that’s just to show that I’m not making bs up when I say the goats have to have those tags. I didn’t realise they were THAT strict about it, but it is actually a police matter apparently. I hope no one turns in Mia, the outlaw.
